Here are 2 hands that I could use some help on.

Hand #1

Villain is a complete joke. He has re-raised my twice so I decided to take a flop and make a stand.

Hand #2

Villain is 26/16/2 over 200+ hands. I have seen him bluff big in the past so I figured I was good with TPTK and the gutter...

Any input would be great!

1: Calling off your stack with TPWK isn't "making a stand". I'm not that experienced at beating light 3bettors, but you're best off waiting for something good like AK and fourbetting it to make a stand... or just moving tables.

2: Hmn, kinda close.

Hand 1 - You need to fold this pre to the 3-bet or 4-bet him if you think he is raising a very wide range. You are OOP so folding is the best play pre- this isn't the best spot to call and go broke on an A high flop

Hand 2- 4-bet pre? As played I call the all-in, but villain probably has QQ/TT or AQ

#1: bad. fold to pf reraise.

if you decide to play it, keep pots small. board texture is right up there in villains range. I hoped you played ATs for flush or straight capabilities, and not stack off on T kicker?
add this to what ash said


#2: people don't bluff pf often, maybe in very very special occasions. has villain ever reraised as a bluff pf?

I'd fold. Board is right up there in villains range. Maybe if only the A came up with 2 undercards, I'd stack off. The only actual hand you are beating (in his range) is KK. Did he have KK?
My dream... is to fly... over the rainbow... so high...

1. Fold pre. AT is not a great hand.

2. Very close in most cases but with Danpil I fold. He's a VERY tight preflop raiser, lord knows how tight his 3betting range is. I think you split here at best.

Look again, he has position, but it does not matter.

Hand 1: Fold to the pre-flop re-raise. At best here you are 50/50 and easily dominated. As played, fold to the flop re-raise.

Hand 2: I'd raise the flop to $12 and fold to his re-raise all-in.
